SN 2002dx
SN 2002dx was discovered by the KAIT team on images taken on July 8.5
(mag about 18.8) and 9.5 (mag about 18.9). The host galaxy is UGC 12861,
a faint spiral galaxy. The expected maximum for typical SN Ia is mag
about 16.7, but it seems not to be of this type in the early phase (vsnet-campaign-sn
450). The UCB team revealed that it was of type Ia, about 2 months after
maximum (vsnet-campaign-sn
463).
